Rep Power: 3 | A backlight is a form of illumination used in liquid crystal displays (LCDs). Backlights illuminate the LCD from the side or back of the display panel, unlike frontlights, which are placed in front of the LCD. Backlights are used in small displays to increase readability in low light conditions, and in computer displays and LCD televisions to produce light in a manner similar to a CRT display. |

Rep Power: 1 | Backlight is the lighting source which is used to illumunate the pixels in an LCD display. Generally CFL's are used for this purpose but now a days even LED's are also being used to reduce the power consumption. |
